  • Abstract
    A railroad radiotelephone service has been set up for use by railroad personnel to assist in railroad operations. Operating under rules of, and given a sizable number of frequencies by, the Federal Communications Commission, the railroads are using the new service in yards, terminals, harbors, and on main lines, as well as for emergencies. Equipment and housings have been designed to meet this new radio use.
